FOOD AND LABOR • Horses started to be domesticated 4000-3000 BCE. (6000-5000 years ago)
• Scientists don’t really know the exact ancestor. Only 1 truly wild horse exists.
• They were probably first used for meat and then for work and transportation.

przewalskii• The only true wild horse left.
• Przewalskii’s horse is endangered and may be a completely different species anyway.

FOOD AND LABOR • Mustangs are not wild horses. They are…
• Feral: originated from domestic animals

DE-EXTINCTION• Some people are trying to “breed back” an extinct species.
It’s like the reverse of domestication. Selecting for wild traits from original ancestor.
• The Tarpan was a wild horse that went extinct in 1910. These are Heck horses…very similar
• Their coat turns more white in winter.
• The Nazis starting the rebreeding program.

DE-EXTINCTION• The last Ibex, a type of goat, went extinct in 2000 as scientists
tried to collect the DNA from the last one named, Celia.
• Since 2003 Celia’s DNA has been used in a cloning project in an attempt to “de-extinct" the species.
• In 2009, it worked! But the baby only lived 7 minutes after birth.

Create a chart for domestication:
Domestic Animal Wild Ancestor Where? When? How? Why?
Dog Cat Chicken Sheep Cattle Horses
There will be a quiz on the chart…on THURSDAY.

EFFECTS OF DOMESTICATION• After animals become domesticated,
they become dependent upon man.
• What changed?• Why?

• Wild sheep shed most of their wool in summer…
• Feral Soay Sheep off the coast of Scotland. They are close the ancient breeds.

WE CREATED MONSTERS!!
• Domestic sheep have been bred to produce a lot of quality wool and it never stops growing…
• So humans have to shear sheep usually once per year or…

WE CREATED MONSTERS
• They are bred for size which makes them incapable of flight. They are too heavy.
• They also can’t breed naturally because the males chest is so big.
• Some species have their wings clipped at birth.• Ducks and Geese
o Most poultry can not fly, but why?
